Abstract
Several mechanisms have been proposed to control the spatio-temporal chaos. An analytical and numerical insight is given for the control of a vector f ield in an extended system modeled by a vector complex Ginzburg-Landau equa tion (VCGLE). We show how a non-linear diffraction term stabilizes unstable polarized standing waves and linearly polarized traveling waves in a chaot ic scenery. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V, All rights reserved.
